I will do mine tomorrow - having found another tin, I'll do my tin count along with my Quidco totals as before.SPCNo.18 #20 (17 £562.86 16 £678; 15 £1120.92; 14 £416.53; 13 £191.52; 12 £260.48; 11 £480.95; 10 £682.31; 9 £442.64)

OK #66 declaring my totals:
Sealed pot (£2s, £1s and 50ps) = £194.50
Cashback = £65.98
Total = £260.48
Much reduced on previous years - again doesn't include eb*y as again I've used that to pay for stuff bought off said site although I've received a total of £577.13 through sales this year! On the plus side, my lowest-ever cashback does show I've not been spending as much money so I suppose in the spirit of the site, that's a good thing. Must try harder with the weekly purse clear-out into the sealed pot for next year! On my way over to the new challenge now....SPCNo.18 #20 (17 £562.86 16 £678; 15 £1120.92; 14 £416.53; 13 £191.52; 12 £260.48; 11 £480.95; 10 £682.31; 9 £442.64)

Great potting MrsShazbat. Even though your total is lower than last year it’s still an amazing amount.I would like to add my thanks to Sue-UU and 32b3in2013 for their dedication and support in running this thread :T

An excellent amount for you too siju. Thank you for your kind words. From helping sue out for a little while while she has been unwell, I know exactly why she continues with the challenge each year. Every time someone declares the total I do a virtual fist pump. I am so happy with how well everyone has saved, and I am sure that Sue will be too when she comes back.SPC9 #125 - £816.85

We finally got round to counting the money in my splendid pottery pig. My grand total is £670.50! Which will pay for our recent vets bills!!!
I’m number #114.
Thank you for organising this - I do enjoy collecting the spare change through the year, and I occasionally scroll through the forum to see what others are up to and get inspiration!Declutter our home in 2024

Very well done Seaotter. It’s great that your potting has come in handy for vets bills. I hope your pet is ok.

Hi all,
I am back from my weekend break in Berlin, it was lovely, my first time visiting, seeing all the history destinations and lots of things going on as its coming up to 30 years since the fall of the wall, so seemed to have planned that one right, now the reason I am here is to declare my Sealed Pot Challenge, as per my signature I had
£55.00 in the pot, not as good as last year but major changes to my situation this year with reduction of pay and jumping through hoops with universal credit so, I am happy with what the total was, its amazing what little coins dropped in add up.
